Matinee. Last game before Foye's knee is reevaluated. At least two people are going to have to step up and help Al if this team is to have a chance. I'm not going to pimp this thread out, if anyone else wants to, feel free.

I'm more excited to hear about Foye's knee than this game, but i'll be watching.

Game is Today...which is Sunday.

This is a huge game for us, at risk of losing 8 straight amidst our current longest losing streak this season - We need this.

Devon Harris and Jet are going to destroy us unless we give them a little spacing and play more zone against them. Make them Jump Shooters.

Last Dallas game, we fought hard and had dominant performances by Al Jefferson and Craig Smith!

They play interesting D, as they harass the ball handlers well, but can't really contain dribble penetration (Though they have dampier/diop/bass)

I think we can pull this game off if we have McCants and Al Jefferson on the court together at all times. Where Al has struggled, McCants can capitalize...if he plays like he did last game vs. Denver.


Im drinking a crap ton of kool-aid, but I think we got this one. (Hopefully....in light of Foye's upcoming news!)

how does Channel Surfing work? Do you have to download something? I clicked the Wolves/Mavs link on the site and I just got radio to some college game or something.

You should be able to just click. Sometimes if the game is on NBA Tv or something they will only have audio but 90 percent of the time you just click and it shows.
